I was born in Poonch (Kashmir) and now I live in Norway. I oppose war and violence and am a firm believer in the peaceful co-existence of all nations and peoples. In my academic work I have tried to espouse the cause of the weak and the oppressed in a world dominated by power politics, misleading propaganda and violations of basic human rights. I also believe that all conscious members of society have a moral duty to stand for and further the cause of peace and human rights throughout the world.

The Holy Month of Ramadan 2014

Nasir Khan, June 29, 2014

My greetings to all Muslims and other believers on the start of the
holy month of Ramadan. We learnt at school that Satan is chained during
this holy month, unable to do any usual mischiefs or mislead any good
Muslim. That was good to know. Possibly, this referred to that Satan who
has been around from the beginning of the universe. But there are still
many people who call themselves Muslims but are doing exactly the
opposite of what Muslims or other human beings should do. They are
killing each other on sectarian grounds, misusing the name of God and
Islam to unleash violence upon innocent people in various countries.
This is so in case of the indoctrinated and misguided Muslims. Many
so-called Muslim rulers are also doing the same by patronising and
fanning such anti-human violence and hatred for their own political
ends. In my view, these actions and crimes are the actions of Satanic
forces and the followers of the Satanic forces. These actions have
nothing to do with the forces of good and humanity.
